Revenue (× MLF)

Estimated $ per interval — energy (RRP) and FCAS (regional FCAS prices), both × MLF.

🔋 State of charge

Stored energy at the start of each 5‑minute interval (AEMO INITIAL_ENERGY_STORAGE). Available up to the latest next‑day dispatch file.

Methodology & assumptions

  • Dispatch & availability — AEMO Next Day Dispatch UNIT_SOLUTION (5‑minute intervals). Intervention intervals excluded.
  • Regional price — dispatch_price RRP matched by settlement time and NEM region (from generator registry).
  • Energy revenue (× MLF) — cleared MW × (5/60 h) × RRP × MLF.
  • FCAS revenue & volume — cleared FCAS MW from DISPATCHLOAD (raise/lower 6s, 60s, 5min, reg) × (5/60 h) × regional FCAS price × MLF. Volume is total FCAS enablement MWh across services.
  • State of charge — INITIAL_ENERGY_STORAGE (MWh at interval start) from UNIT_SOLUTION, published for bidirectional/storage units. Next-day data — the SOC line lags real time by up to a day.
  • Curtailment — estimated economic curtailment when availability exceeds dispatch target: max(0, availability − cleared) × (5/60) MWh.
  • Not settlement — estimates only. AEMO settlement applies DLF, rebids, constraints, and other factors not modelled here.

How this was derived
INPEX confirms FID for the project and supports the project-level scale, but the press release excerpt available here does not state the dollar amount directly.

Notes
Plant-specific project webpage states construction with an investment value of over $190 million and operational target in 2026. The project is a hybrid solar + BESS facility; however, the provided DUID capacity (27.6 MW / 40 MWh) does not match the public project page capacity (98 MW solar / 20 MW BESS) or the original NSW assessment report (80 MW solar / 20 MW / 20 MWh BESS). Capex is therefore treated as reported project-level investment, not a DUID-specific battery-only cost, and capex per MW is a rough allocation using the provided 27.6 MW capacity.
